Lauren Conrad

After practically breaking the Internet with her short new ‘do last year, Lauren Conrad has continued to chop her hair into its current state: a textured bob. And with her new length comes new ways of styling, which, for us, means lots of fun hair tutorials from the DIY queen. In her latest video (below), the star shares how to get one of her signature looks at home: the side crown plait.

You don’t need to be on Pinterest to get a ton of style, cooking and decorating inspiration. You just need to follow Lauren Conrad on Instagram. And if you’re a bride-to-be, then LC is like the ultimate wedding fairy. The designer recently opened up at Martha Stewart’s Wedding Party event in Chicago (alongside the Martha Stewart Weddings Editorial Director Darcy Miller) about the do’s and don’ts of bridal party dressing, the inspiration behind her Paper Crown bridesmaids dress collection and the totally amazing gift she gave to guests at her September 2014 nuptials to William Tell. (Brides, you should probably bookmark this immediately.)

Cinderella had a fairy godmother to give her the gorgeous gown and pumpkin carriage of her dreams. The rest of us just have wishful thinking — and then we have to open our wallets. But because Disney anticipated that every girl might want a princess moment, they partnered with everyone from Lauren Conrad to prom dress designers to create pieces inspired by the film (and more specifically, that updated iconic blue dress). Check out a (very small) selection of the movie merch below, then tell us: See anything you’re dying to buy?

Lauren Conrad once professed she would “never go bob again” after rocking the style in the early ’00s, but with a little convincing from her hairstylist, the fashionista admits she learned to “never say never” — and says she’s loving her her new shorter cut.

“It’s fun to do something a little different, especially when you’ve had your hair the same way for a long time,” Conrad tells PEOPLE.

We love a good Throwback Thursday wedding photo. We really love when the wedding photo is from Lauren Conrad‘s personal album. The star posted a full-length couple shot from her big day on Instagram, and it’s probably already been pinned to every bridal board on the Internet.
